~ Full Dress Regalia Of Naval Aide de Camp To King George VI J.W. Boutwood, DSO ~

Here we have a fascinating piece of Royal Naval history, the full dress uniform and sword of an officer who served in both World Wars and distinguished himself in the Naval War in North Africa in 1943 and in the Italian Campaign in 1944. Boutwood was eventually made a Captain and was awarded a DSO and mentioned in dispatches.

The set consists of his entire Navy Dress uniform, jacket, waistcoat, trousers, cape (with shoulder boards) and his named sword.

Boutwood served from 1917 on the HMS Inflexible and ending his career as the Aide de Camp To King George.

The uniform is top quality just like the sword, made by Gieves and Wilkinson respectively.

Overall a wonderful set and a rare piece, also quite nicely this is a complete and ready display set that would be the crown of any military collectors display.
